It appears at least one of Baker Mayfield's ex-teammates is celebrating his demise with the Cleveland Browns.
It appears that he could be on his way out of Cleveland – even if Watson gets traded elsewhere. “You can get out of the way or you can join us.” Additionally, when asked if the trade request made things awkward, Mayfield said, “it’s not awkward, it’s self-inflicted. Just minutes after Mayfield’s post, Duke Johnson, who was his teammate in 2018, posted a GIF of a crashed train setting a room on fire.
Browns QB Baker Mayfield wrote a thank you letter to the city of Cleveland after the origanization met with Deshaun Watson.
Watson must now waive his trade clause to facilitate a trade and join another team. "This is not a message with hidden meaning. In the letter, Mayfield thanked the city of Cleveland and its fans.
With the Cleveland Browns among the teams pursuing a trade for Deshaun Watson, quarterback Baker Mayfield addressed his uncertain status with the franchise.
But that meeting was not firmly scheduled as of Tuesday. The Falcons have Matt Ryan at quarterback and could trade him to another quarterback-needy team if they’re able to land Watson. It does not appear Mayfield would be included in a prospective trade with the Texans for Watson. The Browns’ entry to the trade deliberations was intriguing because they already have Mayfield, the No. 1 selection in the 2018 draft.
Quarterback Baker Mayfield addressed his uncertain future with the Cleveland Browns in a letter to fans Tuesday night.
"Cleveland will always be a part of [wife] Emily and my story. "The past 4 years have been nothing short of truly life changing since I heard my name called in the draft to go to Cleveland," Mayfield wrote. The Saints and Panthers met with Watson on Monday in Houston before the Browns did the same Tuesday. The Falcons have a meeting scheduled Wednesday, NFL Network reported. Liberty's Malik Willis and Pittsburgh's Kenny Pickett are widely projected to be chosen in the first round. The No. 1 overall draft pick in 2018, Mayfield struggled mightily last year as the Browns went 8-9 and missed the playoffs despite entering the season with Super Bowl expectations. He still faces 22 civil lawsuits and a likely NFL suspension, yet the grand jury declining to indict Watson kicked off the sweepstakes for the services of the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback.
"I have no clue what happens next, which is the meaning behind the silence I have had during the duration of this process," Mayfield wrote.
The quarterback was cleared last week by a grand jury of criminal charges related to the sexual misconduct allegations against him in Harris County, Texas. The Athletic reported earlier on Tuesday that the Browns met with Watson about a possible trade. Despite Cleveland's meeting with Watson, Mayfield has not requested a trade, a source confirmed.
If the Cleveland Browns quarterback is going to be traded, he wants to land with the Indianapolis Colts, according to a report.
Colts recently traded Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders and are on the look for a quarterback. If not the Colts will take a quarterback in the 2023 NFL Draft class. Brandon Little is a writer for Sports Illustrated’s Browns Digest website and you can follow him on Twitter here.
On the same day Browns brass flew to Houston to meet with QB Deshaun Watson, Baker Mayfield posted a statement to social media thanking the city of ...
He wound up finishing 27th in the league in QBR, as the Browns missed the playoffs and finished with a disappointing 8-9 record. And we will always be thankful for the impact it has had and will have in our lives.

"The past 4 years have been nothing short of truly life changing since I heard my name called in the draft to go to Cleveland. This is not a message with hidden meaning. This is a modal window. This is a modal window.
Mayfield's fate in Cleveland has been uncertain since the end of last season, even though the Browns exercised his fifth-year rookie option of $18,858,000 last ...
They got a nice haul for Russell Wilson, but the sting of losing the franchise QB will linger until they get it right under center again. Somehow, they didn't just get Tom Brady back from retirement, but also found a way to keep the anchor of his line and their top young cover man. Investing in the line is also smart, considering the turmoil Ryan Tannehill endured for parts of 2021. Good for them getting a rock-solid interior starter to put in front of Daniel Jones in Glowinski. Taylor is an uninspiring starting option at QB, but he at least has the Bills connection and gives New York higher-floor insurance/competition for Jones. Uzomah is a nice pass-catching addition for Zach Wilson, and Tomlinson helps beef up the line. Ward is a fine gamble at corner, where they needed to get younger. Woods, meanwhile, brings experience to the back end of the defense at a reasonable price. Nothing splashy here, but they were always gonna make more of their noise in the draft. The toughest team to grade, the Jags have certainly improved the supporting cast for Trevor Lawrence. But it's awfully hard not to think they could've allocated resources better. Retaining Aaron Rodgers was the biggest move of the offseason, even if the QB wasn't technically a free agent. Arizona went all in on older and/or injury-prone veterans a year ago, but it'd be nice to see the team go a little greener if its gonna spend big money. Several big-name quarterbacks found new homes ahead of the kickoff of the legal tampering period Monday, but now dozens of notable veterans are actually hitting the market, free to negotiate with other teams.

Mary Kay Cabot was the first to report (and deserves some respect) that the Browns were pursuing Watson, who is going to meet with the Browns today. You know, ...
The Browns front office, which many thoughts was so shiny and new, is starting to show some serious issues and cracks in the foundation. 2022 is going to be a very interesting year. Secondly, if the Browns fail to land Watson, who’s still facing possible suspensions and lord knows what else is in that man’s closet, Mayfield could just walk away by demanding to be traded or released. Which is about what I’m starting to expect from Berry. That’s a different story for a different day. If you have a five-to-seven-year window, you don’t want one who’s going to be gone in two. If guys like Ryan and Wilson were free agents and didn’t cost the team some of its best assets, that’d be a more manageable discussion.
If Cleveland Browns QB Baker Mayfield is traded before the 2022 NFL season, where will he land? PFN Insider Tony Pauline has new information.
The Colts currently have one of the best offensive lines and running backs in the NFL, a solid WR group, and a young defense. However, it is important to note that he suffered a number of injuries. Mayfield will also have the final say after this season, as sources told Pauline that even if he’s playing for the Browns this year, they don’t see a long-term future for him in Cleveland. “Cleveland will always be a part of Emily and my story. I have no clue what happens next, which is the meaning behind the silence I have had during the duration of this process. Pauline reported that he was told Browns’ general manager Andrew Berry has promised to work with Mayfield’s team and send him to a place of his choosing — if at all possible.
Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield, who has had his ups and downs in Cleveland, issued a statement, thanking fans for their support through it all.
I can only control what I can, which is trusting god’s plan throughout this process.” “This is not a message of hidden meaning. “The past four years have been nothing short of truly life changing since I heard my name called in the draft to go to Cleveland,” Baker posted on social media.
After a week full of trade speculation in Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, Baker Mayfield penned what may be his farewell letter to the city of Cleveland.
There’s still much to be determined about Baker Mayfield’s future, both as a Brown and in the NFL long term. That’s exactly what appeared to happen on Tuesday night, however, as Mayfield posted a tweet with a message to Cleveland, a sort of farewell to the city. After falling short of making the playoffs following a successful 2020 season, general manager Andrew Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski knew that had to make improvements to get back where they wanted to go.
Baker Mayfield penned an open letter to Browns fans, sharing it on social media a short time after team officials reportedly met with Houston Texans ...
Some considered it a farewell message to Cleveland, while others showed gratitude for what Mayfield has done for the Browns franchise over the past four seasons. Last week, a grand jury declined to indict Watson following a police investigation, but the civil procedures involving the Texans quarterback and the 22 woman are still ongoing. Fans, critics, and even a former player of the Cleveland Browns took to Twitter to react.
Cleveland's agreeing to meet with Deshaun Watson in such a public manner has backed the team into a corner with its current quarterback.
While the latter part of his rookie contract was spent with a version of the Browns that favored stability, Mayfield was still epically tossed about in choppy waters over the first few years of his career. The true test of their organizational alignment will be how they might fall behind a player like Watson, who still faces civil charges (with some accounts of his actions corroborated independently by Sports Illustrated). Or how they might fill the vacant space they’d suddenly face if Watson decides to play for the Falcons, Saints or Panthers, given the remaining pieces available to them in this rapidly closing market. We’re not here to carry the bucket for Mayfield, though there are some position coaches out there who still believe he can be an upper-tier franchise player. We’re here to point out that these Browns are smart enough to realize that. The Browns met with Deshaun Watson on Tuesday, which they would not have done if the club wasn’t fully prepared to move on from Baker Mayfield. Cleveland knew full well that the meeting with Watson would be widely reported. The Browns have had their minor, internal scuffles since the current regime arrived, but nothing compared to years past, when almost every general manager and coach was in a footrace to undermine one another anonymously to the press.
Cleveland quarterback shares a message as Browns woo Houston quarterback Deshaun Watson.
Cleveland is one of three teams, along with the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers, that Watson and the Texans have met with about a potential trade. Cleveland will always be a part of [wife] Emily and my story. The past 4 years have been nothing short of truly life changing since I heard my name called in the draft to go to Cleveland. This is not a message with hidden meaning.
